If youโ€™re a fan of comedy, you might want to head over to the AVA at Casino del Sol on Saturday, July 16.

Standup comedian Gabriel โ€œFluffyโ€ Iglesias is back, which might seem like a pretty fast turnaround given that he was here was last November for his โ€œBeyond the Fluffy World Tour โ€” Go Big or Go Home.โ€ This go-around he is doing a new show, โ€œBack on Tour,โ€ which will hit dozens of U.S. cities through next May.

Expect Iglesiasโ€™s weight to be one direction on his comedy highway, merging onto lanes that include observations about family, friends and his life on the little screen doing the short-lived Netflix sitcom โ€œMr. Iglesias,โ€ about a high school teacher who returns to teach at his alma mater.

Iglesias plays the AVA, 5655 W. Valencia Road, at 8 p.m. Saturday. Tickets are $40-$65 through casinodelsol.com.
